How to install WebMin
How to install WebMin
Installation of webmin is extremely easy especially for newbies. We will try to tell how to install webmin via all distributions like rpm, tar.gz and so on..
I am starting to tell installation, assuming you have downloaded your appropirate version of WebMin from here.
Command for installing webmin rpm:
rpm -U webmin-1.430-1.noarch.rpm
The rest of the installation will be done automaticaly on to the directory /usr/libexec/webmin. Login details will be same with your root and rootpassword. You should reach to panel at the url http://YOUR-IP:10000/
-------
Command for Deb package:
dpkg --install webmin_1.430_all.deb
The rest of the installation will be done automaticaly on to the directory /usr/share/webmin. Login details will be same with your root and rootpassword. You should reach to panel at the url http://YOUR-IP:10000/
-------
Command for tar.gz installation:
[root@server /tmp]# gunzip webmin-1.x.tar.gz
[root@server /tmp]# tar xf webmin-1.x.tar
[root@server /tmp]# cd webmin-1.x
[root@server /tmp/webmin-1.x]# ./setup.sh /usr/local/webmin
Before installing webmin from tar.gz, you will need to have Perl5 installed on your server. Perl is usually installed on the directory /usr/bin/perl and is a default package for most types of Linux OSes. You will need to follow the directions prompted on SSH.
Not depending on the way you have installed WebMin, you will need to open port 10000 if you have an active firewall/iptables installed. Otherwise you will be blocked on port 10000 and WebMin will not be used. If your firewall/iptables is blocking the port 10000, obviously you will have to open it to reach the control panel.
Please refer to our Linux section for more information about opening up ports.
Thank you for listening to us!

How to install MRTG on DirectAdmin
How to install MRTG on DirectAdmin
This will guide you to install MRTG bandwidth report tool on your DirectAdmin control panels fully automated! Please follow the guide step by step to avoid misconfigurations. Tested on Redhat 9, FC 2 and 3, centOS 3, 4 and 5..
The installer script will check if there are any installed MRTG before in folder /var/www/html/mrtg. If you have installed MRTG before, make sure you have removed it and it's crontab entry to make the script work correctly!
- You will need root access.
- wget http://serveio.com/da/install.mrtg.sh
- chmod +x install.mrtg.sh
- ./install.mrtg.sh
And it's installed. That's just easy as 1-2-3..
When it's completed, MRTG will be installed in /var/www/html/mrtg and can be viewed at http://yourhostname/mrtg.
To uninstall the copy installed by using this script;
- Edit /etc/crontab and remove the following line
*/5 * * * * root /usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/mrtg /var/www/html/mrtg/core/mrtg.cfg
- rm -rf /usr/local/mrtg-2/
- rm -rf /var/www/html/mrtg/

How to Find PHP -nobody- spammers
How to Find PHP -nobody- spammers
It has been always problem in shared hosting servers that customers sending out large spam mails. Your server's loads go higher and higher, customers begin moarning.. Now it's easy to find out the PHP nobody spammers in cPanel based servers. Following script is not developed by me but I am using it actively on our shared web hosting servers. It's highly recommended for hosters..
Please follow the guide correctly.
- mv /usr/sbin/sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail.real
- pico /usr/bin/sendmail (into this file, paste the code below)
- chmod +x /usr/bin/sendmail
- chmod 777 /var/log/formail
- echo > /var/log/formmail
Thanks to Matt for tweaks.

How to install shoutcast streaming server
How to install shoutcast streaming server
Shoutcast is the world's #1 FREE multimedia streaming software based on WinAmp player. Thousands of people use this application to stream their voice worldwide, why not we shouldn't? This article will show us how to install shoutcast on our servers. Windows version is extremely easy, so we are passing it away :)
Let's start installation..
Generally it's a bad idea to install shoutcast under root account. So we will need to create another user and associate it with shoutcast. This is not a must but required for your secure.
- Login to server by root.
- adduser shoutcast
- passwd shoutcast
Account created and password is set. Now login as the new user named shoutcast.
- Grab files from shoutcast
wget http://www.shoutcast..9-2-linux-glibc6.tar.gz
- Extract files
tar -zxvf shoutcast-1-9-2-linux-glibc6.tar.gz
- Make the folder
rm -rf shoutcast-1-9-2-linux-glibc6.tar.gz
mv shoutcast-1-9-2-linux-glibc6 shoutcast
cd shoutcast
Shoutcast installed! Now it's time to configuration..
You will probably want to edit listener number, port and password for streaming. All configuration is in the file named, sc_serv.conf
- Edit the file sc_serv.conf with your favourite text editor
- Define MaxUser, Password and PortBase
- Uncomment the directive AdminPassword and set password here for web panel
- Save the changes with CTRL+X
- Run shoutcast with command ./sc_serv sc_serv.conf
It's working perfectly, no? If not, start from top you have done something wrong :)

Plesk - FTP session time problem
How to set longer FTP session time in Plesk.
By default, Plesk's FTP server timeout is around 180 seconds. If you need longer time for clients you can make it longer from FTP configuration files. You will need root access to your linux based server.

- Set times how you need between area <Global> and </Global>
Old values:
<Global>
DefaultRoot ~ psacln
AllowOverwrite on
</Global>
New values should look like this:
DefaultRoot ~ psacln
AllowOverwrite on
